No one outside of Cincinnati was expecting to see the Bengals make a Super Bowl run. Their current squad is filled with young, audacious, kids who have no idea what they’re doing on a football field just yet.

This season was supposed to be just another step in the right direction, possibly finishing with a record just below .500 before preparing to take another leap in 2022.
